關於 sb happen to ，我們在網路上蒐集到這些相關的討論、資訊與評價

這學期會話課我選了2016年的 “Designated Survivor”當補充教材，雖然是舊片，但在字彙與片語的豐富度和各種社會、文化、政治議題都有所觸及的廣度是我很喜歡的。這一季的 “Emily in Paris”就不太適合，“The Queen's Gambit”因為不是自己喜歡的類型，所以看了一集就棄看了。私心自然是最喜歡Ridley Scott導演的“Raised by Wolves”，這當然是因為我對與外星文明有關的片毫無抵抗力，而且如果說普羅米修斯是異型前傳的話，那“Raised by Wolves”似乎正走向普羅米修斯前傳。
以下是整理出來的“Designated Survivor”第一季第一集所出現的重要單字和片語，本來是出給學生們當作業的但是沒人交 ~

Suddenly remembered the recipe from a friend (Chinese). The body is really beautiful. Outside is beautiful.

(source: nureeman ramli)

It's okay to buy jamu / detox or any herbs that we don't know where the ingredients are from. So try this traditional recipe, it's good for outside women.

Only use 3 types of natural ingredients.. Today I'm just trying to make us see what will happen after this.

MATERIALS
3 lemons sliced thinly (don't remove skin. Because skin has a lot of nutrients
3 garlic pumpkins (skin removed)
2 inches of ginger (as big as toes)

* the lemon bought the local one. Don't buy something imported (sprayed with chemicals) because it's a bit bitter. Want to be less bitter mixed with honey.

* Don't worry about the smell of onions because the smell will disappear when mixed with other ingredients.

* mommy bf can drink. The best body feels light. After drinking, I'm addicted to it. really has a lot of nutrients.

HOW TO PREPARE
1. pieces of smooth 3 ingredients (want to know what material it is? Later I'll share in the comments section)
2. mixed ingredients just now with 1.5 litres of water
3. boil for 6-8 hours (slow cooker)
4. cool down and blend
5. filters or not. I didn't filter 😅
6. and then can drink

HOW TO DRINK
Take 2 spoon + honey 1 spoon
take morning and night only
The rest keep it in the fridge and practice it everyday
Benefits / nutrients:
Want to slim down + flat stomach + remove toxins + urinate + for women's interior + wind + light body + many more nutrition

BENEFITS
1) Drink lemon water before eating / drinking anything in the morning can fine tune our digestion system and prevent problems like bloating, wind, and heartburn.

2) This lemon is antiseptic and is really great in ′′ cleaning ′′ our hearts (not an emotional problem.. haha), other than our kidneys and blood. Hopefully, we'll feel more comfortable and more energetic!

3) Lemon is the main source of vitamin C. If we drink early in the morning, we don't have to worry about fulfilling our vitamin C quota. Lemon is also rich with minerals like potassium, calcium and mag

[時事英文] 美國和中國準備「離婚」了

Do you foresee an amicable divorce or an ________ one?

想知道答案的同學請留言「Divorce is never easy.」。

amicable (adj.) 心平氣和的；不傷和氣的

★★★★★★★★★★★★

《紐約時報》報導:

Love it or hate it, the U.S.-China partnership that was forged between 1979 and 2019 delivered a lot of prosperity to a lot of people and a lot of relative peace to the world — and, baby, we will miss it when it’s gone.

1. be forged 被（尤指努力地）建立，製造，生産
2. deliver 實現；產生；兌現（諾言）*
3. prosperity 繁榮
4. relative peace 相對和平

愛也罷，恨也罷，美中自1979年至2019年建立的夥伴關係為很多人帶來了巨大的繁榮，也為世界帶來了相對的和平——寶貝，當它消失之後，我們會懷念的。

“Both sides are saying, ‘We’ve had enough of you,” remarked Jim McGregor, chairman of APCO Worldwide for Greater China. And as Trump himself put it in a tweet last week, the U.S. has the option “of a complete decoupling from China.”

5. both sides 雙方
6. We have had enough. 我們受夠了
7. as…put it 正如…所說，表述*
8. a complete decoupling 徹底脫鉤

「雙方都在說，『我們受夠你們了』，」安可顧問公司(APCO Worldwide)大中華區主席麥健陸(Jim McGregor)說。正如川普本週發推所說的那樣，美國可以選擇「與中國徹底脫鉤」。

*put it: https://bit.ly/2ZaSC9C

★★★★★★★★★★★★

These four decades of unconscious coupling hurt some workers, benefited many others and especially benefited consumers; it also took the edge off the natural rivalry between the world’s most powerful country and the most important rising power and enabled them to collaborate on global problems, like climate change and the post-2008 economic crisis.

9. unconscious coupling 無意中的婚姻，結合*
10. benefit consumers 使消費者受益
11. take the edge off 緩和了; 減弱，削弱（不良事物的影響）
12. natural rivalry 天然競爭
13. rising power 新興政權
14. collaborate on… 在…合作，協作
15. climate change 氣候變化
16. economic crisis 經濟危機

40年無意中的婚姻傷害了一些工人，但也使很多人受益，特別是消費者；這段關係還緩和了世界上最強大的國家與最重要的新興大國之間的天然競爭，使它們能在全球問題上合作，比如應對氣候變化和2008年後的經濟危機。

*couple (v.): https://bit.ly/31jakdT

★★★★★★★★★★★★

But the unconscious coupling is over. Henceforth, it will be more hedged, opportunities will be more restricted and the relationship will be full of a lot more conscious suspicion and fear that a rupture could happen at any time.

17. henceforth 從現在開始，從此以後
18. be hedged 受到更多束縛，嚴格限制
19. conscious suspicion 有意識的懷疑
20. a rupture 破裂

但是這段無意中的婚姻已經結束。今後，它將受到更多束縛，機會將受到更多限制，這段關係將充斥有意識的懷疑，以及對其隨時可能破裂的擔憂。

★★★★★★★★★★★★

Summing up the relationship today, McGregor, of APCO Worldwide, noted: “I don’t know if the Chinese are taking America seriously anymore. They are happy to just let us keep damaging ourselves. We have to wake up and grow up” — and get our own act and allies together. China respects one thing only: leverage. Today, we have too little and China has too much.

21. sum (sth/sb) up 總結，概述，概括*
22. take… seriously 把…當回事; 嚴肅地看待…
23. wake up 醒悟
24. get your act together (informal) 振作自己；有條理地行事；合理安排
25. leverage 影響力

總結當今的關係，安可顧問公司的麥健陸指出：「我不知道中國人是否還會把美國當回事。他們樂意看到我們繼續傷害自己。我們必須醒悟過來、成長起來」——並且還要團結一致，與盟友並肩。中國尊重的只有一個東西：影響力。今天，我們擁有的影響力太少，而中國則擁有太多。
